Default k12 coolant/help

So, it's 7 degrees out, when I started my 3.2 the radiator light came on advising to shut off engine check level. Coolant in reservoir was below minimum. Started back up drove 20 minutes no issues. Checked reservoir again still below minimum. Can't get to dealer anytime soon for k12 coolant. Advice?

You can pick up G12 at VW dealers, as well, if one of those is easier for you to get to. Definitely need to pick some up if you're below minimum.
